We welcome the children and their families!

17.01.2022 Last week we opened two new kindergartens! Allow us to introduce you to the first of these, and some of the cosy, friendly spaces at Wallan East Family & Children's Centre, located in Mitchell Shire Council. The kindergarten is located in an area of huge growth for the community. We offer three and four year old sessions and there is also maternal and child health services on site, making it a real family hub. It was our great pleasure to meet the kinder kids and their families last week when we opened our doors.

13.01.2022 We'd like you to meet Dr Kathy Mendis. Part of the line up for our first Virtual Event on November 24th, Kathy is a Child & Family Worker at Kids First and will be pitching for funding for Sensory kits for trauma recovery. "The families who come to our attention are those who are going through very difficult times. Accordingly, not only our clients but also their children are experiencing heightened levels of stress when we start supporting them... The sensory packs would allow us to teach and demonstrate stress-releasing strategies to both parents and children alike..." Funding would enable Kids First to provide Sensory kits to all of our clients. Visit our website to register for the event: https://www.kidsfirstaustralia.org.au//kids-firstvirtualfu

06.01.2022 Kids First celebrates trans and gender diverse children and young people and supports the right for gender identity to be recognised, respected, and celebrated. We envision a world where every person, no matter their gender or the way they dress, feels safe and has the opportunity to grow and thrive in school, at home, at work, and in the community. A world where transphobia is called out, challenged, and becomes a thing of the past. Read our #TransgenderDayofVisibility statement here: www.cfecfw.asn.au/statement-of-support-international-trans/
